NOTICE. 


The  Books  forming  this  Collection  have  been  selected  with  great 
care  as  to  their  condition,  and  comprise  some  of  the  choicest  speci 
mens  of  binding  by  Bedford,  Riviere,  Hayday,  Matthews,  Pawson 
and  Nicholson,  and  other  eminent  Binders. 

No  Books  have  been  admitted  from  my  stock,  or  from  any  other 
source,  and  with  the  exception  of  a  few  volumes,  none  have  ever  been 
offered  by  me  at  private  sale. 

All  are  warranted  perfect,  unless  otherwise  described,  and 
are  offered  without  any  reservation  whatever. 

The  quotations  of  prices  affixed  to  a  large  portion  of  the  books, 
have  been  taken  from  priced  Catalogues  of  the  most  prominent  sales 
that  have  occurred  in  this  city,  and  elsewhere,  within  the  past  ten  years, 
and  apply  to  copies  similar  in  condition,  unless  otherwise  stated. 

The  comparison  of  the  fluctuations  in  the  prices  of  many  of  the 
volumes,  together  with  the  uniformity. of  those  realized  by  others,  will 
it  is  hoped,  be  of  interest  to  the  Collector.

After  General  Burgoyne's  surrender,  he  was  allowed  to  return  to 
England  on  parole.  Thinking  himself  ill-treated  by  the  Govern 
ment,  and  having  been  elected  member  of  Parliament  for  Preston, 
he  joined  the  opposition  ;  whereupon  an  official  order  was  sent  to 
him,  signifying  that  it  was  the  king's  pleasure  that  he  should  re 
turn  to  America  and  rejoin  his  captive  army.  He  remonstrated, 
and  was  again  ordered,  and  in  consequence  resigned  all  his  civil 
and  military  employments.  In  this  letter  he  gives  an  explanation 
of  his  conduct.

WASHINGTON  to  ANDREW  JOHNSON,  inclusive,  making

GEORGE  WASHINGTON.  The  greal  historical  interest  attached 
to  the  letter  of  Washington,  written  on  the  occasion  of 
the  burning  of  the  village  of  Kingston,  New  York, 
by  the  British,  in  1772,  will  warrant  its  being  printed 
entire. 

GENTLEMEN  : — I  receive  with  peculiar  pleasure  the  affectionate  ad 
dress  of  the  Trustees  of  the  Freeholders  and  Commonalty  of  the 
Town  of  Kingston, — your  polite  and  friendly  reception  of  me  is  a 
proof  of  its  sincerity. 

While  I  view  with  indignation  the  marks  of  a  wanton  and  cruel 
enemy,  I  perceive  with  the  highest  satisfaction  that  the  heavy  calam 
ity  which  befel  this  flourishing  Settlement  seems  but  to  have  added 
to  the  Patriotic  spirit  of  its  Inhabitants  ;  and  that  a  new  town  is  fast 
rising  out  of  the  ashes  of  the  old. 

That  you  and   your  worthy  Constituents  may  long  enjoy  the  Free 
dom  for  which  you  have  so  nobly  contended  is  the  sincere  wish  of 
Gentn.         Yr.  most  obedt.  &  Hble.  Sevt.

Extract  from  "The  Nation,"  November  25,  1867. 

"  Speaking  of  autographs,  we  find  in  Mr.  Morrell's  collection  many  of 
Revolutionary  heroes  and  many  of  artists,  etc.  He  has,  in  a  dress 
almost  extravagantly  fine,  autograph  letters  of  all  the  PRESIDENTS  FROM 
WASHINGTON  DOWN  TO  MR.  JOHNSON.  The  letters  are  none  of  them 
long ;  each  is  written  on  one  page  of  writing  paper,  and  it  was  there 
fore  possible  to  make  them  an  inlaid  volume.  Mr.  Lincoln's  is  short 
and,  characteristically,  is  expressive  of  that  friendliness  and  kindness 
which  constituted  not  the  smallest  of  his  claims  to  the  admiration  of 
his  countrymen  and  all  mankind.  It  reads  as  follows :  '  Whom  it 
may  concern.  William  Johnson,  a  colored  boy,  and  bearer  of  this,  has 
been  with  me  about  twelve  months;  and  has  been,  so  far,  as  I  be 
lieve,  honest,  faithful,  sober,  industrious,  and  handy  as  a  servant.  A. 
Lincoln.'  The  book  contains  portraits  engraved  on  steel  of  each  of 
the  Presidents,  and  is  a  curiosity  which  it  would  not  be  easy  to  du' 
plicate.''

The  intense  historical  interest  associated  with  the  above  ORIGINAL  AUTO 
GRAPH  LETTERS  of  WASHINGTON,  cannot  le  overestimated;  the  first, 
written  at  Valley  Forge,  January,  31,  1778,  to  HENRY  LAURENS, 
President  of  Congress,  respecting  the  cabal  which  existed  against  him 
in  Congress  and  in  the  Army,  and  vindicating  himself  against  the  as 
persions  of  General  Conway  and  others,  is  here  given  in  full 

GEORGE  WASHINGTON  TO  HENRY  LAURENS,  Valley  Forge,  31  January, 
1778:— SIR;  I  this  morning  received  your  favor  of  the  27th 
instant.  I  cannot  sufficiently  express  the  obligation  I  feel  to  you, 
for  your  friendship  and  politeness  upon  all  occasions  in  which  I  am 
so  deeply  interested.  I  was  not  unapprized  that  a  malignant  fac 
tion  had  been  for  some  time  formiug  to  my  prejudice :  which,  con 
scious  as  I  am  of  having  ever  done  all  in  my  power  to  answer  the 
important  purposes  of  the  trust  reposed  in  me,  could  not  but  give 
me  some  pain  on  a  personal  account.  But  my  chief  concern  arises 
from  an  apprehension  of  the  dangerous  consequences,  which  intes 
tine  dissensions  may  produce  to  the  common  cause. 
As  I  have  no  other  view  than  to  promote  the  public  good,  and  am 
unambitious  of  honors  not  founded  in  the  approbation  of  my  coun 
try,  I  would  not  desire  in  the  last  degree  to  suppress  a  free  spirit  of 
inquiry  into  any  part  of  my  conduct,  that  even  a  faction  itself  may 
deem  reprehensible.  The  anonymous  paper  handed  to  you  exhibits 
many  serious  charges,  and  it  is  my  wish  that  it  should  be  submit 
ted  to  Congress.  This  I  am  the  more  inclined  to,  as  the  suppres 
sion  or  concealment,  may  possibly  involve  you  in  embarrassments 
hereafter,  since  it  is  uncertain  how  many  or  who  may  be  privy  to 
the  contents. 

My  enemies  take  an  ungenerous  advantage  of  me.  They  know  the 
delicacy  of  my  situation,  and  that  motives  of  policy  deprive  me  of 
the  defence  I  might  otherwise  make  against  their  insidious  attacks. 
They  know  I  cannot  combat  their  insinuations,  however  injurious, 
without  disclosing  secrets  which  is  of  the  utmost  moment  to  con 
ceal.  But  why  should  I  expect  to  be  exempt  from  censure,  the  un 
failing  lot  of  an  elevated  station  ?  Merit  and  talents,  with  which 
I  can  have  no  pretensions  of  rivalship,  have  ever  been  subject  to  it. 
My  heart  tells  me  that  it  has  been  my  uuremitted  aim  to  do  the  best 
that  circumstances  would  permit ;  yet  I  may  have  been  very  often 
mistaken  in  my  judgment  of  the  means,  and  may  in  many  instances 
deserve  the  imputation  of  error.  I  cannot  forbear  repeating,  that  I 
have  a  grateful  sense  of  the  favorable  disposition  you  have  mani 
fested  to  me  in  this  affair,  and  beg  you  will  believe  me  to  be,  with 
sentiments  of  real  esteem  and  regard,  Sir, 

Your  much  obliged  and  obed't  servant, 

GEORGE  WASHINGTON.
